Mrs. Robinson's Trial.

BosroN, December 15.-In the trial oi
Mrs. Robinson for the murder OF her son
Willie to-day, her attorney admitted that
the boy died from arsenic poisoning, but
denied that it was administered by her.
He declared that DR.. Beers gave Willie
medicine the day before he was taken sick
at his place OF business. Charles
H. Robinson, son OF the prisoner,
testified that DR.. Beers gave him
lot OF powders for Lizzie, his sister, and
that he gave Willie some white pills. Wit.
ness refused to take them when requested
to do 80 by Beers. Mrs. Robinson then took
the stand. She said that Willie had told
her he ha | lent to DR.. Beers $4OO or $500
and had the latter's note for it. She said
she never at any time administered arsenic
or any drug to her son and did not know
it's appearance or properties.

The surface water referred TO IN the
Health Committees report being untenable
and the so.called seepage water being the
same as that in use at the boarding-houses
near the Butte Reduction Works for two
wears. all further reference to imaginary
contamination may as we'll be abandoned
by the Inter Mountain as foolish, ground
less scare without the slightest meaning.
Two years. test is pretty good evidence
that the water at that level is pure and
healthiul. Neither Silver Bow Creek nor
Grove Gulch nor the cemetery have any
thing to do with it.

A GENTLEMEN of the name OF Gregg,
who is now in Helena, may be expected to
create a pretty lively tluttering among
some people interested in land contests in
the neighborhood OF Great Falls. His
visit to Helena is said to be on business
connected with the United States Land
Office, to resist the recent cancellation OF
entries made by him under the desert
land law, and with the intention CT making
a hard contest to that end has secured
some OF the best legal talent in the East.
The contest will be OF interest in the Ter
ritory as demonstrating the efficacy OF
desert land entries in that section.

SOUTHERN COLORED VOTE.
Lynch, of Mississippi, Warns Over Some
Old Chestnuts Concerning It.


New YORK, December 15.-This evening
the First National Convention OF Repub-
lcan Clubs held public meeting in Cooper
Union. Hon. John p. Lynch, the colored
orator OF Mississippi, said he was here to
speak on suppressing the colored vote in
the South. "By form OF law" he said,
cleveland is President, but morally he has
no more right there than he has to the
throne of Great Britain. Cleveland could
no more get the electoral votes OF Missis-
sippi, Louisiana and South Carolina than
he conld those of Pennsylvania, Vermont
and Ohio. There are over 10000 more
colored men than white in MISSISSIPPI
ri, Not less than one.third of the whites
vote the Republican ticket, and no more
than one-tenth of the blacks vote the DEM
ocratic ticket. Yet the State is always
surely Democratic. They 60 through tho
FORMS OF ELECTION
down there, but as soon as the Democratic
Conventions are over the polls are closed.
Sometimes there is difficulty in getting
Democrats enough to falsify the returns.
When frustrated this way, they sometimes
resort to violence. These frauds are per-
petrated mainly because the general senti-
ment OF the country tolerates them.
Until the people OF the North get their eyes
open, these things will llcontinuein theSouth. J"
The speakers idea of a remedy was to
reduce the representation OF the Southern
States. Then If colored men could not be
represented they would have the satisfac-
ton OF knowing the vote was not going
to their enemy. Congressman represent
colored men who are virtually disfran-
chised. Speaker Noyes, Of the Massachus.
etts House of Representatives, commended
the address of Mr.. Lynch. Tariff is OF
small Importance compared with the
QUESTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS.
Cleveland has thrown the gauntlet into the
arena that Republicans will quickly take
up. The President issued proclamation
that had in it the platform OF his party,
and a citizen across the water had criti-
cised it [great cheering], and it spread
over the world, giving it many read
ers where it only would have
had one. We are not here to designate
candidate, but he thought events had
designated who the next candidate would
be, A letter from John 8. Wise, OF Virginia,
did not speak hopefully of Virginia's Re.
publican vote. Hon. John Dalziel, OF
Pennsylvania, dwelt principally upon
tariff. He attributed the surplus and many
other ills to internal revenue.
